Abstract
A connector has a detector (11) provided in a housing (10) movably in a front-rear direction and allowed to move from a standby position to a detection position in front of the standby position when both housings (10, 90) are connected properly. The housing (10) includes housing narrowing portions (76) narrowed toward a rear part, and the detector (11) includes two side walls (53) configured to cover both side surfaces of the rear part of the housing (10). The side walls (53) include detecting member narrowing portions (56) narrowed to correspond to the housing narrowing portions (76) in parts facing the housing narrowing portions (76).
